Conversations with Bizzy
My name is Elizabeth, though most know me as Bizzy—a childhood nickname that reflects my vibrant, dynamic life, now centered around sobriety and helping others. After earning a degree in Communications from George Washington University/Mount Vernon College, I began my career at a CBS affiliate in Philadelphia and as a guest host at QVC, where I thrived in front of the camera and discovered my passion for public speaking. However, my love for drinking almost derailed everything.
Following a pivotal career shift and achieving sobriety, I became a certified Recovery Coach, driven to support others and break the stigma surrounding alcoholism. This passion led me to launch "Let’s Talk," where I shared my personal journey publicly. In addition to being a Recovery Coach, I am now also a certified Life Coach and Health and Wellness Coach, dedicated to helping others live their best lives.
With 18 years of sobriety, I continue to inspire and uplift through my podcast, Conversations with Bizzy, where share stories of hope and resilience. My logo, the Spoonbill, symbolizes the peace we all seek—a peace I believe is only possible through a higher power.

Episode 528 Ash Wednesday & Lent: Trusting God’s Plan for the Next 40 Days
In this episode, I’m sharing my personal journey through Lent—what I learned last year, how the Hallow app played a role in deepening my faith, and why I believe trusting our own intuition is so important. We don’t need gimmicks or external devices to make us okay—God has already given us everything we need inside. I’ll talk about how Lent can be a time of real transformation, not just giving something up for the sake of it. I’ll also dive into the impact of technology on our relationships and why being present is more powerful than any app or trend.
Try Hallow: https://try.hallow.com/lent-special?
Takeaways:
- Lent is more than just giving something up—it’s a time for real personal and spiritual transformation.
- Finding the right spiritual practices is a personal journey. What works for one person might not work for another, and that’s okay.
- Trusting in God and our own intuition can lead to unexpected opportunities and a deeper sense of peace.
- Technology can be a distraction, keeping us from being truly present with God and our loved ones.
- Change can be uncomfortable, but embracing it leads to growth.
- Hearing other people's stories can inspire us to make changes in our own lives.
- I’ve learned to stop apologizing for my beliefs and to stand firm in my faith.
- Taking time for quiet reflection—without distractions—has been one of the most powerful parts of my spiritual journey.
- Life is full of possibilities, and we always have the choice to trust in God’s plan.
- No matter what, we are never alone—God is always with us.
